Isekai Nonbiri Nouka

Chapter 760 – After the Blizzard

The blizzard has stopped.

And what awaits is a bright morning.

When I opened the door, the world turned to silver.

No, it was already silver even before the blizzard.

The thickness of snow is amazing.

More than two meters high.

This looks like a shoveling problem.

Thinking that the roof should have the same thickness of snow over it, we had to remove the snow fast.

While I was thinking about it, the dragons, or rather, Raimeiren….started working.

She used magic to turn the snow solid and carried it all at once.

Is that how she makes the snow mountain?

Even if the reason why she’s working for us is to show off to Hiichirou, as long as it’s helpful, it’s okay.

Ah, wait a minute.

Leave the snow on the square as it is.

That place is going to be used for the snowball fight.

The demon king and Glatts decided on the location and shape and adjusted the snow around by using the thermal insulation stone to turn it into defensive terrain.

It didn’t work very well because of how heavy the blizzard was but you can faintly see the shape of the encampment.

…..not bad and looks useful.

Starting next winter, I guess we should start installing thermal insulation stones on the roads and roofs.

Ah, right, we also need to think about where the melted snow from the thermal insulation stone will flow.

If we don’t design the right drainage, things will get dangerous.

Let’s do it while consulting the villagers.

Later.

-0-

For now, we still currently have something to do.

Leave the snow to the dragons and have the adults who can move around split up and check every part of the village.

The most important thing to do now is to confirm the safety of the villagers and animals.

Next, check buildings for damages.

Ah, children, don’t go too far away yet.

It should be fine for you to stay at the places where the dragons have cleared the snow. As for other places, you might get stuck in the deep snow.

If possible, please don’t get in the way of the work of the dragons.

As for the dragons, they look very motivated.

By the way, Guronde.

I would appreciate it if you could keep an eye on Dors and Girar in case they get carried away.

Orthros Oru, go escort Guronde.

…….

Oru.

You’re wearing some warm clothes.

They were made by the spiderlings?

They look good on you.

I don’t think it’s overkill for you to wear shoes…I mean, snow is cold, right?

Yeah yeah.

-0-

Alright.

We also need to check the bee hives in the fruit area.

They are checked and reinforced before winter every year so they should be fine….

Good, they haven’t collapsed.

Great.

However, we have to be careful about the snow piled up on tree branches.

There are icicles everywhere.

We should break off anything within reach.

I’ll ask the angels to break the icicles in high places.

……

Kuros.

I’ll ask the angels so you don’t have to tackle the trees!

Falling snow, especially icicles, is dangerous.

They are dodging it lightly but I’ll get a heart attack just by watching.

Ah, look, you got burrowed by snow.

Are you okay?

Good.

I know you’ve been indoors for a while so I understand that you want to move your body.

However, be careful.

There could be a hole hidden in the snow or even something else.

No, only a fool would take it lightly just because you used to come to this place before the blizzard.

There are many people in this village that can make holes with magic.

I hope you understand.

Then, let’s go back to the mansion.

When I looked up at the sky, I saw the universal ship from Village Four.

-0-

Tou, the captain of the universal ship, reported that there were no problems in Village Four, the lamias of the south dungeon, and the titans of the north dungeon.

They must have checked on them first before going here.

Thank you.

Especially since we won’t be able to inform the lamias of the south dungeon and the titans of the north dungeons immediately about the blizzard.

I was worried.

「It seems like both the lamias and titans have detected the blizzard based on their time-taught intuition.」

That’s great.

I’ve lived here for around…almost nineteen years?

Even so, my intuition never detected a blizzard.

At most, I can tell if the weather is going to get worse.

It’s more accurate to ask Kuro and the others regarding things like that.

There seems to be nothing urgent that needs to be delivered at Village Four so I asked the universal ship to head for Howling Village.

It’s also a village in the mountains.

Sena and Gutt said that there should be damage from snow.

As neighbors, we should be concerned.

As for the rest….

Village Five.

-0-

Youko, the acting village chief of Village Five, moved to Village Five before the blizzard.

We don’t know how long we will be trapped by the blizzard after all.

It was a consideration to make sure her work in Village Five won’t be affected.

I thought she would take her daughter, Hitoe, with her but Hitoe stayed in Big Tree Village.

「Hitoe feels more at home at Big Tree Village. There are too many people in Village Five.」

I’m happy for that trust but that also brings pressure.

Well, Hitoe didn’t mind Youko’s absence and lived normally with the oni maids and beastgirls.

When I entered the Big Tree Dungeon with Hitoe in my arms, we bumped into Youko, who had just returned from Village Five.

I’m glad we did not miss each other given how many paths the dungeon has.

I’m glad we met on the way.

I handed Hitoe to Youkko and returned to my mansion.

That night.

A small banquet was held to celebrate the end of the blizzard.

The main event was a thanksgiving for the fact that there was no major damage to the village. In addition, there is also the celebration for the winner of Glatts’ game.

Apparently, the forces of the spiderlings, led by Doraim, won.

However, although they lost the game, I can’t help but feel that the angels, who managed to obtain a lot of gains with bribes and other underhanded tactics, were the team with the highest advantage.

「That’s how the angels are.」

Glatts complained to me and the angels didn’t seem to mind at all.

Yeah, just eat as much as you like.

The main dish of the banquet was udon noodles cooked in a small pot made by Gutt and the other blacksmiths.

Under the pot is a pot stand with thermal insulation stone.

「This small pot is quite extravagant desu ne.」

One of the angels praised it and I agree with her.

I agree alright.

It can only be used in this kind of banquet after all.

「Ara, is that so? I would like to have some of this size. Given the size, it can be used to make a small amount of medicine.」

「I agree. I would like some as well.」

Loo and Flora wanted small pots too.

It’s alright but don’t take the ones we use for cooking.

I’ll ask Gutt’s group to make some for you.

「Thanks. And I’d also like some pot stands.」

「Me too, me too.」

Okay, okay.

That’s a mountain elf.

I’ll tell them to make some.

Ah, the oni maids have brought extra udon and mochi.

If you want one, just let me know.

It was a lively after-blizzard dinner.
